800,000 H1N1 Vaccines for Young Children Recalled!

h1n1Who would have thought, right?

About 800,000 H1N1 vaccines are being recalled.

Apparently, the vaccines that are being recalled aren't as "potent" as they should be. The French manufacturer Sanofi Pasteur (one of the 5 main manufacturers)  is recalling the vaccines.  

The company's and CDC's excuse? Children don't have to be vaccinated and immunized against the H1N1.

The company's spoke person Len Lavenda  said that the company's test results were below 12 percent of the point where it should have been.

The four lots that were tested of the H1N1 all failed, according to Lavenda. These vaccines have been distributed all over America.  Doctors are urged to take precautions and are recommended to check their vaccines.

Health Bill Pays for Teenagers Learning to Be Adults

From Kaiser:

The Senate wants to help with a provision allocating $400 million from 2010 to 2015 to help teens make the transition to adulthood.

The money goes to states primarily to set up sex education programs. But the money can also be used for "adult preparation" programs that promote "positive self esteem, relationship dynamics, friendships, dating, romantic involvement, marriage and family interaction."

What ever happened to parental and personal responsibility? The health bill is nothing but government intervention from cradle to grave, and everything in between.
